People Talking To Themselves
When I was a youngster if you heard someone talking to themselves on the street, you assumed they were out of the "asylum". Nowadays you assume that any are on their phone, oblivious to the outside world or their generosity in sharing their personal conversation.
Today, a further "taking a knee" towards those that feel a need to be in touch wherever they might be, an announcement that the ability to use mobile phones on trains/underground is intended to be available everywhere in the future.
Oh for the chance to have a quiet journey without having to listen to the prattle of others.
